On Wednesday 15 and 22 November, the Hunebed Center will open its registers especially for illustrators! Led by painter Esther Schlebos, a two-day workshop will take place where you will have the opportunity to closely examine and sketch real fossils and faithful replicas.

Bring your favorite materials; sketchbook, paper, pencil, fineliners, etc. Possibly watercolor paint for washed drawings. (but not acrylic and/or oil paint). The Hunebed Center provides good workplaces in the form of tables, chairs and good lighting for the fossils. There will be skulls of a Woolly Rhino, Saber-tooth Tiger and Steppe Wisent. Large bones of Mammoths, but also skulls of various hominins including Neanderthals. The workshop will be held in the Granietzaal.
